Trump Threatens Iran with Military Action Amid Conflict

In a press conference, U.S. President Donald Trump reiterated his threats against Iran, declaring that a proposed 45-day ceasefire is "not good enough." He warned that U.S. forces would destroy every bridge and power plant in Iran within four hours if hostilities continue.

This statement comes amid a five-week conflict in the Middle East, triggered by joint U.S.-Israeli air assaults on Iranian targets. Trump emphasized that military action would commence at midnight GMT on Tuesday, stating, "complete demolition" would occur.

Iranian state media has rejected the ceasefire proposal, insisting on a definitive end to the conflict. The Red Cross's chief, Mirjana Spoljar, condemned Trump's threats against civilian infrastructure as illegal.

Recent Israeli strikes have targeted major Iranian petrochemical facilities and military assets, while Iran has continued missile and drone attacks in the region. The ongoing conflict has escalated tensions and impacted global oil prices.
